Hi, and welcome to the forum. I use the Snipping Tool a good bit myself. Since it's a utility that is provided by the Windows operating system, I doubt that there's anything that Evernote could do to change the way it functions.

However, Evernote includes its own screen clipping utility, accessed by holding the Win key + PrintScreen. Press that and you get a set of cross-hairs with a little instruction box. Click and drag to select an area of the screen; when the area is selected, it will automatically be clipped to a new Evernote. With a little practice it becomes quite easy.

Hi. If the snipping tool puts an image on the clipboard it should immediately be pastable into an Evernote note. I don't actually use it - I prefer the Evernote clipper @Dave-in-Decatur mentioned.  (In addition to what Dave said,  if you hold the Shift key when clipping the snip will be saved to your desktop.)

To add even another way the EN clipper has an option for screenshot.  If you use this option you are presented with a dialog box which will let you edit the clip,  tag the clip, add a remark, and select a notebook.  FWIW.
